When the men of Dan come by and want to inquire of God, the response is telling. The Scriptures say, "The priest answered them," note it doesn't say that the Lord said anything. Also, this sell-out priest left Micah when a better offer came along.
Micah's response to losing the idol and priest is that he has lost everything. This is the problem with idols: they can be taken. The difference with God is that he can never be taken from us when we truly have him. We have security that no one can take our God because he isn't ours, we are His.
